I \-Trl Anpral to yodr catidoifr to • determine, on reflection, whether von have not been too hard upon The Morning Chronicle this -day, in coupling it with the despicable faction of attinittect Felons," the Spa-fields and Palace yard Orators, who have obviously nothing in view bnt the interests of their own vanity, ambition, and venality, even though the gratification of their views should inevitably produce as bloody a Revolntioo as that of France, and end in the ruin of their Country Sorely you - cannot conceive that The Morning Chronicle, which must he sop posed to constitute a considerable property, can have the same principles, and be actuated Ky- the saute purposes, as the miscreants alluded to, who possess none, and whO, to obtain property, would be guilty of the most flagitious enormities. It is tell ltnown that The Morning Chronicle professes to act upon Whig Principles ; and it is equally well known that the HUNTS, the WATSONS, the WOOLPHS, and the BURDETIT3S, in general detest flliig Principles; and, whatever they may pretend, it is vets probable that these Revolutionary Wretches really rejoice in that dreadful calamity which has occasioned the necessity of a new Election for IVestmiuster, since, if it does not af ford them a chance of procuring the return of some Favourite of Faction, it will, at least, .give them an opportunity of raising a mob., of obtrud ing themselves again upon public attention, ,of venttng their old-mischievous doctrines, in veno mous and inflammatory harangues, in order to ex cite insurrection, and to render the most revered characters in the country the objects of daily abuse, if not, perhaps, the victims of assassination. A wide distinction . surely should be made between this desperate gang, who are capable of proceeding to the most horrible excesses, to effect the purpose of overthrowing the Government of the country, that a rabble Democracy,. of which they presume they should be• the leaders, may be the destruc tive result,—surely then, I say, a wide distinction should _be made between so atrocious a horde of desperadoes, and the efforts of those who support the freedom of the Press, the best restraint upon the ambition of Ministers, and one of the firmest bulwarks of the rights of a People. Nov. 5, ISIB. CA NDIDUS. *** We readily insert this Letter, but we beg leave to refer our Correspondent to the daily co lumns of The Morning Chronicle, which is con stantly directing its artful sophistry, malignant sneers, or specious declamation against what it stiles LEGITIMACY, by which word it can only mean those Monarchical Governments xvhich have been established for ages, which have adapted themselves to the characters of their respective people, and which are allowed by all sound cians to comprize a system best calculated to pro mote and confirm the happiness and security of a State. We trust, that these unceasing attacks upon LEGITIMACY, which serve the cause and support the views of the factions'and rebellious miscreants in question, will excuse us, if we own ourselves in• capabl e of drawing a line of demarcation where the objects in view appear to he similar, if not identiCal. There was yesterday. in this same Morning Chronicle, a scandalous letter signed netens, which, with ostentatious pedantry, and affee!ed parade of learning, attempts not only to satirize LEGITIMACY, but to degrade MONARCHY, and render it ridiculous and contemptible in the eyes of mankind. we therefore cannot feel our selves justified in recanting the opinions which have excited the censure of our Correspondent, but are rather confirmed in the disposition to maintain them by a daily perusal of The Morning Chronicle.

Sutton Coldfield, Nov. 3, 1818.—W - tiling/atm Chronicle) THE MARKETS. CORN•EXCHANOB, Nov. 6,—'Tie supply of English Wheat at market this morning being ra ther small, that of tine quality met ready sale at last Monday's prices, notwithstanding the arrival of 10,000 quarters from abroad, as per statement at foot. Barley, both English and Foreign, is . 3s. to 4s. cheaper, the supply of each having beer► large, and the deaf:m(l inadequate to it, owing to the reluctance of the Malisters to purchase at pre sent prices, in consequence of the dull state of the Malt Trade. Although the arrivals of Oats con tinue large, yet from the extensiveness of the de mand, sales were btisk at an advance of Is. per quarter on Monday's prices. White and Grey Pease are 2s. per quarter dearer. Beans are 2s. lower, in consequence of large arrivals from the Mediterranean.—The Importations of Grain this week are as follows : Wheat .. Barley Oats English. Foreign. 3.720 .... 10,000 10.830 .... 6.050 7,610 .... 9:150 SMITHFIELD MARKET, Nov. 6. Our Market of this day was well supplied with prime Beasts; business was very brisk, and sales were readily ef fected at last Monday's prices. The show of Sheep was by no means large, but there was also a briskness in the trade in the early part of the morning, and all that were offered for sale went off at an advance on Monday's prices. Pork was cheaper; Veal rather dearer, there being a scarcity of Calves at this day's market. —The trade in the Hay-market was very dull this morning, and the prime samples of that article were at a decline of full -Bs. per load ; Clover supports last week's prices, owing to considerable sales having been made in that article; Straw was 6s. per lead cheaper, and scarcely a sale made.

Foreign Pockets, • THE Tit RATRE.—The revived Tragedy of Adel githa was again represented last night at Covent- Garden Theatre, and was again very attractive, Miss SOMERVILLE makes a poWerful impression on the audience in the Heroine, and is likely to become a popular favourite.—The rest of the cha racters were well sustained by C. KEMELS, MACREADY, and YOUNG. On account of the indisposition of Mrs. Fatrcrr, Ahe parr of &act .was assigned to Mrs. CONNOR, who acquitted herself very respectably, and who appeared to so much advantage last sea son at the Haymarket Theatre, that the Proprie tors of this Theatre have shown more than usual managerial discernment in retaining her. A Bal let •fol}owetl the Play,' founded on the story 01 Paul and Virginia ; antrthe revived Farce of Who Wins, or The Ifidow's Choice, afforded good scope for the talents of LisToN, J.

Acquittal of Horne Took, Hardy, and others.— Yesterday the Anniversary of the acquittal of the above -named persons, and their associates, was celebrated by a dinner at the Nortt►umberlaud Alms, clerkenwell.Green. This motley assen►- itlage consisted 01 about 200 of untamed Jacobins of the old and new school. The Elder EVANS was in the Chair; and after the customary toasts haul been circulated, and a decent quantity of gin swallowed, S•ewards were appointed to regulate he proceedings of what they call the triumph of the " Trial by Jury" for the next Anniversary.

The 'objects pr , ruosed ftdlowing Article Ore so important to the Public at l'at;:e:, and so interesting to tinin-inry, , har we, feel peculiar plea sure in recommending turn! to the atte lion of our numerous Readers in Town and Country.-- The enquiries are simple, aint an. v :dem ly ed on_ benevolent and patriotic principlr_s. We fed, therefore, much gratified in the reflection that our ektensive Provincial 'circulation will af ford an ample opportunity for such satisfactory answer's as may, from various 'quarters, produce full information, and materially tend to the relief and advantage of all ranks of 'society .EIVCOUR..IGEMENT dF INDUSTRY, A REDUCTION OF POOPS' RATES. The 'encouragement tar Industry, and the Reduction of Poore Rates, being etsential to the comfort and prosperity of the Community. has •occasioired a union of some Gentlemen, who, having formed themselves into a Provisional Committee, desire to elicit the best information on these important sub jects. They commenced their exertions in the Metropolis, on account of the facility which it affords for communication. That the subject is of vital importance to .the interests of our Country, appears from the Legislature having invited information relative to the State and Employment of the Poor.. It is evident that their destitute situation can only be remedied by means of Employment being found fur the Un occupied, not interfering with any existing Occupation. The communications received in consequence of application to Agricultural and Manufacturing Parishes, the information derived from Members of the Board of Agriculture, and the cases of practical success published by the Nobility and other Land Owners, have evinced that the Poor are generally in dustrious, and able to maintain themselves without parochial aid, when occupying small portions of land. The Committee desire, by a patient and zealous investiga tion, to ascertain the most eligible mode of accomplishing these important objects; and its exertions bare been sanc tioned by numerous enlightened and benevolent Characters, who arc of opinion that the Employment of the Poor, and lessening th e b ur d en o f P aroc h ia l Assess M ents, are princi pally to be attained by the additional Cultivation of Land. If this. Principle was generally adopted, every class of So ciety would derive substantial Benefit, and considerable faci lity would attend its execution if publicly supported. fit thus venturing to request information, the Committee address every patriotic and benevolent character. Its object are—To awaken attention—To invite discussion—To arrest and avert the evils so long deplored—To employ the Unem ployed —And to promote Individual and National prosperity. In this enlightened and benevolent Age, it is anticipated that the following Enquiries will excite intelligent Replies, affording demonstrative proof that Subjects of general Utility occupy the Public Mind. ENQUIRIES. I. If such of the Poor as have small families, and are out of work, or whose low wages are insufficient to maintain them, wet e supplied with a small portion of land, nearly rent free, with the Means of erectin g a co tt age , if necessary, on the same, would it prove a stimulus to industry, be accepted and cultivated, and eventually render paruchiai relief unneces sary ?__ Fur persons with large families, say six children and upwards, in similar circumstances, would it be considered likely if a Cow and a sufficient quantity of Land, say one and a half or two acres, at a low rent, were supplied, that such, would be enabled to live without parochial assistance ? 111. What effects might such assistance he expected to pro duce in a given number of years (say JO or 15) on the moral condition and happiness of the Poor, especially of the rising race, and the welfare of the Community at large ? IV. If approved (and the money necessary to accomplish it could be raised), your opinion is requested as to the best mode of carrying the same into effect? V. Your opinion is requested (in the prop' iety of large and populous places employing land for the occupation their Poor under suitable stiperintendance (which has in some instances been practiced), with a view to enable them to sub sist without parochial aid ? VI. Any other information on the subject of furnishing emplOyment to our industrious Poor, nut prejudicial to ex isting occupations, will lie esteemed. Miss S. BOOTH has returned to town, we un derstand, in IA-established health but is to take a new provincial trip before she resumes her station at Covent• Garden. Her late theatrical excursion, it is said, has been very productive both in fame and profit. The Duchess of YORK spent Tuesday evening with the Princess SOPHIA, and the Princess SOPHIA of GLoticEsTEtt, at Windsor Castle. The Royal Duchess slept at her apartments in the Upper Lodge, Windsor, 'end remained there during Wednesday morning. In the afternoon her Royal Highness drove herself in her curricle to Oat lands. Ar (Fe late Stafford Sessions it was d'rected by be Court, " that the order in common cases of , bastardy be in future made for the payment of two shillings, weekly by the reputed father, and one shilling, by the mother, in case she shall 110 C herself nurse the child, so long as it shall be chargeable to the parish." At the last Leominster Quarter Sessions a BR of Indictment was found against a man for a mis demeanor, in selling his zone, on the 18th Octo ber, in the public marker of that town fur 2s. 6 , 1. Miss MottGAN, the young Lady who had been committed for assaulting and publicly charging with a breach of promise of marriage, Mi. Ro- BERT TYLER, a Clerk to Mr. ROUPELL, an emi nent Soticitor iu Lincoln's Inn-fields, was yester day brought up to the Court, in Guildhall, West minster, and discharged, on entering into her own recognizance, and finding one surety to keep the peace for twelve months. Bow - STaser.—Yesterday Ducloy Wells was brought to the Office by two of the Deal con stables, charged with being concerned with seve ral smugglers in murdering four of the Fox Re venue cutter's crew, about three years ago, in re sisting their seizing a vessel laden with smuggled goods; and two of the smuggling party had beets executed for the murders. The prisoner was identified as the man who stands indicted for the murders, and was committed. Yesterday afternoon a shocking circumFtavice took place in Hyde Park.—A young woulan, • dres%ed very neatly, lik e a servant, was observed by a boy walking near the blink of the Serpen tine river, it; a very melancholy mood, frequently looking into the water and looking round, appa rently for, the purpose of seeing it she Was Ob.
